〈◊〉_d in_o the_o greek_a as_o if_o they_o be_v to_o have_v all_o but_o one_o soul_n among_o they_o and_o thus_o you_o see_v what_o be_v the_o unity_n which_o the_o apostle_n exhort_v to_o a_o agreement_n in_o seek_v the_o same_o common_a end_n a_o agreement_n in_o judgement_n and_o opinion_n in_o all_o necessary_a and_o weighty_a point_n a_o agreement_n also_o in_o opinion_n in_o lesser_a

of_o worship_v god_n and_o celebrate_v religious_a duty_n as_o far_o as_o that_o can_v be_v attain_v and_o last_o above_o all_o a_o unity_n of_o affection_n which_o ought_v to_o prevail_v above_o

this_o general_o among_o we_o we_o may_v venture_v to_o say_v that_o there_o will_v not_o be_v half_a that_o contention_n and_o disagreement_n about_o small_a matter_n that_o there_o be_v or_o have_v be_v for_o he_o that_o understand_v right_o the_o worth_n and_o excellency_n of_o true_a religion_n and_o according_o employ_v his_o most_o serious_a thought_n about_o it_o will_v have_v but_o

the_o church_n and_o the_o public_a interest_n of_o religion_n shall_v seem_v to_o require_v it_o secure_v he_o but_o that_o and_o he_o will_v not_o stand_v with_o you_o for_o little_a matter_n of_o
